About Us

Our Guarantee

Every IT solution and service comes with a 99% uptime guarantee, and is fully guaranteed by the owners themselves. If you ever have a problem with the regular support, just ask that your ticket be assigned to Kyle or Byron, our directors, and they will personally take the time to give you the premium attention that you deserve.

While we rarely have server issues that result in downtime, we admit that short lapses in service can happen. When they do, you shouldn't have to pay. Which is why we drafted our unique 99.9% Uptime Guarantee. Many hosts offer "uptime guarantees" but make no mention of what happens if they don't meet their posted uptime figure. We stand behind our network reliability by offering you a pro-rated credit for any downtime outside of our guaranteed window.

Please note that this guarantee applies only to unscheduled outages. Occasional planned server/network maintenance may be necessary. In all but the most urgent cases, we will send out an email notifying customers of maintenance that is to be performed. When notice is sent at least two hours prior to service interruption, the outage does not qualify for our uptime guarantee.

Please Note: Service credits issued for downtime are issued in the form of credits to your account, and will be automatically applied to future invoices. Cash refunds will not be issued as a result of downtime. Site availability guarantee does not include downtime that is out of inertiaSYSTEMS control, including but not limited to: upstream network outages, internet backbone congestion, outages caused by acts of god, and facility power failures. Account must also be in good standing & not in violation of our Terms of Service or Acceptable Use policies. Credits must be requested within 72 hours of downtime.

24-Hour Support Response Guarantee. If you don't hear back from a team member within 24 hours, we will credit your account.

Any support request that is submitted through our specified support channels is guaranteed to receive a response within 24 hours. Please note that this does not mean that our average response takes 24 hours (it is, on average, usually within minutes.) If a response is not given within 24 hours, a R10 credit can be requested (per ticket).

Please Note: Support response guarantee does not include billing, sales, and abuse emails. Support response guarantee does not guarantee resolution within 24 hours, merely a response from a human (non-automated response). Total credits in a given month cannot exceed 100% of customer's hosting fees for the account which the requests were in reference to.

Terms & Conditions

inertiaSYSTEMS strives to provide the best possible service to all our customers, but we will not tolerate any unlawful activity or abuse on our servers. We respect freedom of speech and expression unless it is harmful to others. These brief guidelines are imposed to protect you, other inertiaSYSTEMS Networks customers and us against such harm. inertiaSYSTEMS reserves the right to update this policy at any time, so please check back periodically.

Payment Policies

Full payment is required before any service is rendered, which includes renewals. All payment-due notices will be sent by electronic mail. Payment is due on the first day of the month, for that month. New orders are pro-rata to the first day of the month. All customers will receive invoices 15 days before the due date. Billing will continue until you cancel your account. We accept the following forms of payment: Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), Credit Card (MasterCard and Visa), PayPal, PayFast and Debit Order.
Debit orders that return as unpaid will attract a R50 administration fee. The account should then be settled by EFT or Credit Card, no further debit orders will run on the account until the overdue amount has been settled.

Late Payment

It is your responsibility to ensure that your payment information is up to date, and that all invoices are paid on time. You agree that until and unless you notify inertiaSYSTEMS of your desire to cancel any or all services received (by the proper means listed in the appropriate section of the Terms & Conditions), those services will be billed on a recurring basis, unless otherwise stated in writing by inertiaSYSTEMS. inertiaSYSTEMS reserves the right to allocate payments to the oldest outstanding invoice on your account. inertiaSYSTEMS reserves the right to bill your credit card or billing information on file with us.
inertiaSYSTEMS provides a 10 day grace period from the time the invoice is due and when it must be paid. Any invoice that is overdue for 10 days will result in account and service suspension until account balance has been paid in full. Access to the account will not be restored until all outstanding payments have been received. We do not charge a reactivation fee.

Cancellation

Cancellations must be done in writing by emailing accounts@inertiasystems.co.za or via my.inertiasystems.co.za. You have the option of cancelling your account immediately or at the end of the billing period. If you choose to cancel the account immediately then your account will be terminated from our servers on receipt of the cancellation. Cancellation of a subscription does not cancel any outstanding invoices. All outstanding invoices are still due.

Domain Cost Refund Policy

Please note that fees payable for domain registration and renewal costs are non-refundable. inertiaSYSTEMS accepts no responsibility for any typing errors (spelling mistakes) you make when ordering a domain name with us. Once a domain name has passed its expiry date there is no guarantee that we are able to renew the domain, additional charges might apply in these cases.

Unlimited Traffic/Storage Policy

Our unlimited plans do not have set limits on bandwidth and disk storage. Instead, we have a fair use policy which goes as follows.
Bandwidth and disk storage are unlimited as long as:
– they used as an integral part of your website,
– you are not intentionally abusing the service by using excessive bandwidth,
– you are not violating our terms and conditions, and
– you are not impeding our capability to provide other service to other customers.

In other words, if you are adding content (images, files, text etc) to your site and using the service in the way it is intended to be used, then we will not limit the amount of bandwidth your site is consuming.

Our intention is that, as long as both parties are being fair, you should not have to worry about bandwidth limits. We'll take care of these sorts of issues so you can concentrate on growing your site.
If, however, you are attempting to take advantage of the service by distributing large files or streaming excessive video or hosting music or something similar, then we will request that you cease doing so.

SPAM Policy

inertiaSYSTEMS takes a zero tolerance approach to the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) or SPAM over our network. Very simply this means that customers of inertiaSYSTEMS may not use or permit others to use our network to transact in UCE. Customers of inertiaSYSTEMS may not host, or permit hosting of, sites or information that is advertised by UCE from other networks. Violations of this policy carry severe penalties, including termination of service.
If your actions have caused inertiaSYSTEMS mail servers or inertiaSYSTEMS IP address ranges to be placed on blacklists and other mail filtering software systems used by companies on the Internet, you will be assessed a R500 charge to your account for administrative charges incurred to remove and protect mail servers and IP ranges.
